Evidence-Based Approaches for Online Care

Nicole integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy into her online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression and to teach practical coping skills. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially helpful for intense emotions, relationship difficulties, and coping with trauma.

She also draws on mindfulness techniques to help clients increase present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity, supporting calm and clarity in everyday life. Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process - Nicole discusses options with each person, tailors methods to their goals, and adjusts the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, access care from home, and maintain continuity during life transitions. Licensed professionals can deliver the same evidence-based tools online, and Nicole helps clients use these formats in ways that suit their preferences and needs.
